That doesn't work either, at least in Windows 10 it doesn't. Gene...

Try up-arrow after pressing the Windows key.  Then, maybe, a left or right.

Not sure if this has been covered, but I have a shortcut named Boot System that restarts the system. I use this for the command line in the shortcut: C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe /r /t 00 Don't

 Are you kidding? Linux typically is more secure than any windows. It is always being updated. Glenn

Oh I thought Linux wasn’t being updated anymore…

 I figured he hadn't gotten to the message yet, so that is why I didn't respond. Glenn

In this regard I count myself lucky I had such an idiot for a screen reader instructor that I ended up learning JAWS on my own. The big advantage was that I always knew whose key strokes I was using,

Ditto to your last comment, Glenn. I'm never on the desktop unless I specificly move to it. Probably has something to do with how we use our PCs as Gene has no issues with this. but, it's easy

That is the oddity I've noticed, even when I have closed everything, the computer is never focused on the desktop until I move there with windows M or windows D. Glenn

When I am ready to shut down, I always exit any applications I might have running so when it comes time to hit Alt+F4 I'm on the desktop. Gene...
